DAVIE, Fla. -- Miami Dolphins defensive tackle Tim Bowens, one of the team's top run stoppers, will not play next Sunday against the Oakland Raiders because of a knee injury.

The 6-foot-4, 320-pound Bowens had arthroscopic surgery to repair cartilage damage on his left knee Friday, a month after he had similar surgery on his right knee.

Bowens' left knee started bothering him during training camp, but team doctors thought it was because he had been favoring his right knee since he hurt it last season. Bowens didn't have surgery on his right knee last year, instead opting to play through the injury.

Coach Dave Wannstedt said Sunday that Jermaine Haley will start in Bowens' place. Filling in for Daryl Gardener when he was injured last season, Haley played well.

"Daryl was out last year for six games, and Haley was in there and we didn't miss a beat," Wannstedt said.

Safety Trent Gamble also will miss Sunday's game with a shoulder injury.
